Density 10 · +1 vs Sweets medianChocolate-flavored hazelnut spread lands at 10 of 100 on the Nutrient Density Score, a Low band result that ranks 25 of 60 foods in the Sweets category. That modest score still carries two genuine standouts from the hazelnuts and cocoa solids: 33% DV vitamin E and 24% DV iron, plus 19% DV fiber and 15% DV magnesium, more nutrient density than most jars in this aisle.
Most people spread it on toast, swirl it into crepes, or stir a spoonful into oatmeal, with a typical serving running 2 tablespoons (37 g). The honest caveat is the sugar and fat behind those numbers: 54 g of sugars and 28.4 g of saturated fat per 100 g, so it belongs in the treat column rather than the everyday one.
